“Knowing how you actually want to feel is the most potent form of clarity that you can have. Generating those feelings is the most powerfully creative thing you can do with your life.”

Let’s talk about life.

Do you feel free? Joyful? Connected?

Does your life feel the way you want it to feel?

Are you feeling stuck? In a rut? And just want something better for yourself and your life?

How about always on an emotional roller-coaster?

I get it, I’ve been there too…more than once…

I found the Desire Map a few years ago, honestly at first because the colors of the cover attracted me (they match my logo). It was as if a magnet had pulled me to it. I opened it, read it, and it forever changed my world, my understanding of my soul, how I connected to the greater world and ultimately, I started to actually believe what I was capable of. After all I had just had a baby, married for only 1 year, had lost a beloved uncle at 52 to cancer, and that promotion to a job I thought I had, never became mine. I was in the biggest rut I had ever known. The pain in my heart and hormone imbalances had caused me to be dizzy and in a constant fog for over a year and a half. The outgoing fun personality that everyone knew was no longer. My extroverted side became introverted and I turned to self-reflection and The Desire Map. I learned to get out of my “spinning head” and move into my heart. I learned that feeling was ok, and finally I gave myself the permission that I needed to feel GOOD things…drop the guilt, drop the fear, place perfectionism to the side, and open up my heart. I discovered that my Core Desired Feelings (CDFs) were Creative. Inspirational. Abundance. Intuitive. Balanced.I knew that I was destined to help others find their life’s purpose and feel healthy and balanced while they’re living it. I know now that the Desire Map was the catalyst for the change I needed.

This book isn’t just intellectual theory. It actually walks you through the process of practically (+ soulfully) creating a life that you actually want to live, connected to people, experiences and things that you actually want to be connected to. So here’s the deal…I could just send you the book, right?….NAH….It’s way more fun to bring this experience to life in a live setting! I’m psyched that I was gifted almost a year ago to be a Desire Map Licensee, and want to invite you to the join in on the retreat.

Let’s Re-sync with The Desire Map retreat and get clear on how you really want to feel in every area of your life…and actually start moving towards it. Wouldn’t it feel awesome to say “I can” and “I will” instead of “I didn’t” or “I can’t”? And how about turning those “later’s” into “now’s”?

Here is what happens. You will…….

IDENTIFY your Core Desired Feelings (i.e. your “CDF’s” as we call them). This will be your new compass for life.

RETHINK our existing thoughts about feelings and goal-setting, examining where we’re striving, and how we can lighten the load and experience more freedom.

CONNECTtogether in our own community with like-minded souls, form bonds & create lasting connections (trust me, these are way more than just friendships).

CREATE a sacred space to do this work – gentle yoga + meditations, healthy and grounding meals.

EMPOWEReach other through our limiting beliefs and replace them with new, powerful ways of being.

SURRENDERyour fears, frustrations, sadness, excitement, passions, and your stories – you name it. This is a circle that we create together. Anything goes!

CELEBRATEWe’ll have a ceremony to celebrate + anchor in your CDF’s, so that you’ll be reminded about all the goodness you’ve uncovered, in the days, weeks and months to come!

Are you ready? There’s no time like the present, the now.. because honestly, you deserve all the good coming your way. All you have to do is listen to your desires, open your heart and arms up, and give yourself permission to feel lighter, brighter, happier, and healthier…….

trust me….it’s possible….join me

Women’s Wellness Network

Spreading the WELL together: Mind, Body, and Soul.

Women’s Wellness Retreat: A day to push excuses to the side and focus on your physical and emotional health for 2017.

Includes Lunch, Snacks, Tea, The Desire Map Workbook, goodies bag, and yoga and meditation 🙂 (Aside from all of the good stuff we will be doing).

Here’s What Participants had to Say….

“Too often in life we find ourselves stuck. We settle for what we think we need, not what we want. We do this, because sometimes we think we have no choice. And sometimes because that is easier to do than tapping into our innermost feelings. We accept things for what they are and do what we have to do. We do this year after year only to wake up one morning to realize we have died inside. And eventually we’ll end up regretting our choices. Jim Carrey once gave a beautiful graduation speech. In it he told the story of his father, a man who did what he HAD to do. It was a beautiful inspiring story and ended with a great question: You can still fail at the things you don’t want to do, so why not try to do the things you DO want to do?!? This is what this retreat is all about. Permission to find your *you*. The unapologetic, raw you that lights your soul on fire. At the retreat there’s no judgment, only positive energy. Connie taps into your innermost feelings and the results might surprise you. It’s gut wrenching, emotional and inspiring at the same time. Chances are you’ll meet wonderful people and see their awe-inspiring transformations. If a life full of regrets appeals to you, then skip this retreat. If you want to see where this beautiful little thing called life can take you – fully, unabashed, positively – then be a part of it. You already have everything you need. This is an amazing eye opening experience. Don’t overthink it. Just for once — free yourself and see what happens”

” For the first time in over a year I was able to start to forgive and rebuild a relationship with one of the most important people in my life. I was able to see many of the positive qualities about myself and my life I had long forgotten. We were all so lucky to have met each other, shared our stories, and built some incredible relationships in such a short amount of time. It was truly an unforgettable experience.”-Julia Nogueira

We all have our place of confidence, when we lead from within, our core, we are leading from what I call, our InnHER Genius. When we find that one, two or three areas that ignite, inspire, and empower us as a woman, we have arrived, and anything is possible from there. When we feel stuck, overwhelmed, exhausted, stressed, and unhappy, we are not living our days feeling how we ultimately want to feel. During this half day retreat, we will use the Desire Map as a tool to gain clarity for why we are where we are. We will explore our gratitude and dissatisfaction in our lives, and give ourselves permission to lead from our InnHER Genius area(s). Some of us know what they are, and others may not have discovered them yet. This will be a journey of inner work, connection, and discovery to begin to feel ultimately how you want to feel EVERYDAY. I am offering this in a virtual format due to popular demand, and look forward to our journey together.

Take your CDFs into Action with the Desire Map Level 2 Retreat

so……you’ve done the soul work, you have connected with how you want to feel everyday, and your Core Desired Feelings (CDFs) are on fire…and you are now ready to set your intentions and make your CDFs come even more alive….

The Desire Map is about soul setting…working from the inside out to create goals and intentions aligned with your CDFs. This is when your soul becomes…strategized.

We will explore perceptions of goals and goal-setting, especially in relationship to ambition, external approval and “success”.

We will do some energy exfoliating, talk about our “stop doing” list… what we can “say no and yes to”, talk fear….as we know fear is real…

We will identify a handful of goals and/or intentions that are aligned with your Core Desired Feelings, and create a plan to support those goals and intentions.
